The hald daemon supports the recognition of hardware changes for devices that conform to the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) specifica-
tion.
The enabling and disabling of hald can be performed through the service management facility (SMF) (see smf(5)). hald is managed using the
fault management resource identifier (FMRI) svc:/system/hal. Options can be specified as SMF properties. See EXAMPLES.

OPTIONS

The following options are supported:
--daemon Run as a daemon.
--help Display usage information and exit.
--use-syslog Display debug messages to syslog instead of stderr. Use this option to record debug messages if HAL runs as daemon.
--verbose Display debug information.
--version Display version information and exit.
